Specification of the Ogg PCM encoding format in LadioCast follows https://wiki.xiph.org/OggPCM with the exception that numerical values are expressed in little-endian (according to other specifications of Ogg [1]).

Be careful when using the new Ogg Opus encoding. Currently it needs the system sample rate of LadioCast to be 48000 (default 44100). The system sample rate is NOT the encoding sample rate on the streamer windows but that in the preferences panel. Also changing the values in the preferences panel needs LadioCast to be restarted. This Ogg Opus encoding implementation is in a testing state.

Hello Ivan!
Thank you for your suggestion on LadioCast.
Though currently no plan to support the shoutcast format, it’s mature and relatively simple as icecast2. So I will consider in the future releases if a large demand still exists and the format continues to be popular.
Cheers!

Hi Kaiwauso… I’m having a problem with LadioCast. According to my streaming host, LadioCast is telling the server that I am sending an MPEG stream even though I have AAC selected – therefore the native player on the streamhost platform is not playing any audio… however, the stream is working on tunein. I have noticed that LadioCast is populating some fields with ICECAST data even though I have ShoutCast selected on the streamer. Can you please help?

Hi Dirk,
Thank you for your interest in LadioCast!
Unfortunately current LadioCast can only connect with the shoutcast v1 protocol.
This limitation is mainly from the result that I couldn’t find any easy v2 client library which should be provided by shoutcast.com;-).
Cheers!

Installed Ladiocast on my MacBook. Set Streamer 1 to SHOUTcast. I am trying to connect to a SHOUTcast v2.5 server. It times out saying can’t connect, check network configuration and settings. I checked these and all are good. Is there an issue this server version or settings I should be aware of? This is a My Radio Stream server.
